    Tips

    December 6, 2022

    The Feldbergfest (or Feldbergturnfest) is the oldest German mountain sports festival and was first held in 1844; in 2022 it took place for the 166th time.
    The original idea behind it: to raise money for the planned construction of a house on the Feldberg (that worked and in 1860 the Feldberghaus was inaugurated).
    Because in 1844 three political borders (Electorate of Hesse-Kassel, City of Frankfurt and Duchy of Nassau) ran across the Feldberg plateau, the first gathering took place in disregard of national borders and is said to have set a sign of German unity.

    At the edge of the sports field there is a stone with a memorial plaque commemorating the 1st Feldbergturnfest.
